Metropolitan Framing are your canvas stretching specialists.

Have you recently travelled overseas and purchased artwork on Canvas?
Do you have a rolled up canvas still laying around from last year’s holiday?

Metropolitan Framing are Perths canvas stretching professionals. We will custom stretch your canvas artwork ready to hang. All of our canvas work is stretched onto quality custom stretchers/strainers. We also custom build stretcher/strainer frames for non-standard and large format works.

Trust your artwork to us. Unlike some canvas stretching services, we use only quality materials and processes.

We specialise in Original Aboriginal, Bali Artwork and Wide-Format Digital Canvas prints.

Only stainless steel staples are used to secure your artwork. Other staples may rust over time causing damage to the artwork.

Proper kiln dried pine strainer bars with a lip are used, not just square edged industrial timber. This allows the work to sit correctly on the frame. We also offer an option of quality Meranti timber stretchers if preferred.

We use plastic coated stainless steel hanging wire where required. This is strong and doesn’t stretch or rot.

D-Rings are used on all our work – we finish the job professionally and recommend using a “2-Point Hanging System” for safe and stable art hanging. We even supply complimentary wall hooks with our canvas artwork.

We complete the backing of the stretched artwork with tape.

We use bumpers on the back corners of all of our work.

Support braces are used where required ensuring that the work stays taught and square.

Frame sealing polyethylene barrier tape can be applied for a more archival result of your finished product.

We have a Certified Picture Framer (CPF) on staff to offer advice and guidance on the various ways to display your canvas paintings or prints.

Framing or floating options are also available.

DIY Option

If you prefer a DIY option, we can supply stretcher bars, strainers or custom built frames for you to stretch and/or frame the canvas yourself.
We even have stretching pliers and staple guns available for hire and can offer advise to help you get started.

Contact us today for me information.

Blank Primed Artists Canvas

Artists can order custom made, high quality Canvas to suit your requirements. Primed Belgian Linen, 8oz-14oz Triple Primed quality Cotton Canvas, 12oz Black Primed Cotton Canvas are just some of the available sub-straits that we offer. We hand stretch the canvas onto your choice of our quality strainers and provide the required hanging hardware so all you have to think about is your art. Our custom blank canvas are used and recommended by many in Perths art community.

TESTIMONIALS.

Great service. Made sure they got me the same frame to match my other pictures and gave great advice on the matting to bring out the best in the photo. Happy customer!

I have had many framers over the years but this one is the best. They earn their five stars easily by competitive pricing with great service and attitude. There are many framers much closer to me but am willing to go the extra miles to go to them because they always go the extra miles with their service.

I went in with a canvas not knowing what I wanted and walked out incredibly happy. He explained the different types of framing they can do with canvas, suggested other ideas and gave opinions on what sort of framing would look good with my canvas. Ended up with a float (which I didn't even know that type existed) and was finished earlier than I was told!

Extremely good customer service, and incredibly happy with the results! Definitely coming back again!

Metropolitan Framing have done a number of different framing jobs for me now; from sports memorabilia, priceless old family pictures as well as recent ones, prints and canvas stretching to name just a few. The jobs have always been completed on time and to a standard I haven't been able to get from other framers, and the the cost just couldn't be compared. Their service and quality of work is exemplary. Metropolitan Framers are the best. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a top quality job delivered on time and at the best possible price.

I picked up a very close-to-my-heart autograph that was framed for me, and I simply could not be happier. The quality of the workmanship, the care taken with my autograph, is absolutely worth five stars and more. I am yet to hang it up, as am redecorating the room where it will hang, but Metropolitan Framing provided an amazing service at a very competitive rate. Highly recommended.

I just had a few items framed at Metropolitan Framing and they did an excellent job. Their price was more that Great value and the completed work looked way better than I expected. I would definatly recommend this buisiness to anyone who wants to frame their memorabilia at a bargain price. I even travelled from North Perth to Ellenbrook to get my shirts framed before xmas and they were the only framer that I rung up that could do the work in the short timeframe.

I, like another review, made trip up to Ellenbrook after comparing Metropolitan Framing's prices with a number of galleries and framing services in the Western and Southern suburbs. Looking for someone to stretch and frame a valuable oil on canvas for me, I was truly impressed by their knowledge, advice and craftsmanship. The work was completed to a stunningly high standard in a very short timeframe, and the price is simply unbeatable. Would not hesitate to recommend and am thrilled with final product!

In my usual manner I was running late with a very special present that needed to be framed and was told (politely!) that it is usually a 2-ish week turnaround. When they found out it was for my little boy's birthday on Friday all stops were pulled out and I received a message today (Thursday, I only dropped it in on Tuesday!) that my little man's present was ready to be picked up. They went above and beyond what they needed to do knowing they were fully booked too so thank you so much guys, you have made my day! Would recommend to anyone.

I cannot speak highly enough of the work that Mike and his team have done for us. We gave them quite a challenge with some large artworks and they far exceeded the service we were expecting, going so far as to bring the first of our paintings to our showroom for us to see to make sure we were happy. First class service and I would highly recommend using them.

Today I bought some tape from Metropolitan Framing, and left with a few scrap pieces of foam core for free. I tried my best to cut it myself at home but failed miserably. They not only hand cut the scrap into strips for me, but did it for nothing despite being flat out with actual paying customers. How often does that happen these days? Very professional, kind, and generous. Cannot recommend highly enough, and now thanks to that amazing service Metropolitan Framing will always have my business.
